Chapter 200: Beating Akainu
A strong repulsive force erupted from Blaize's body and stopped the incoming attack of Sakazuki for a second before scattering them away.
Seeing his signature move couldn't even burn the opponent's clothes, Sakazuki composed himself and began to analyze how the other party stopped his attack.
He was told the power is related to gravity but the extent of it isn't confirmed yet. Experiencing it in person, the might of the devil fruit is stronger than Sakazuki thought.
'What category does this devil fruit fall into?'
Meanwhile, two figures hid behind a huge groove with their presence concealed perfectly. They were watching the confrontation between Sakazuki and Blaize.
Don't know what kind of ability they were using, as even Blaize's Observation Haki failed to notice their presence, but thankfully his 'En' sensed their location.
'CP-0, huh? This is getting interesting!' Blaize smiled inwardly without expressing anything on his face.
He stared at Sakazuki and gestured with his finger to come at him provocatively. He then commented further, "Admiral Akainu, I heard when criminals see you in person, they tremble in fear!
But, why am I not getting any of these tingling sensations? Are all Marine Admirals just this?"
Blaize's words angered Akainu as the surrounding temperature rose rapidly while the grass beneath him was reduced to ashes under extreme heat.
Clenching his Magma hands that were boiling in fury, he thought of the warning Sengoku gave him just before he left the base.
He's free to use his powers without any restrictions, but it shouldn't harm the innocent residents of Sabaody or the island itself. Right now, he's waiting for the Marines to evacuate...
"Are you waiting for the Marines to clear the people? Don't bother! My sole purpose in killing the World Nobel is to battle an Admiral and show the world.
Unlike you, I'm not someone who harms innocent people just to achieve my goal." Blaize sneered.
He knew Sakazuki wasn't the type of person to care about people's lives. It means he was instructed not to harm innocents as the power of Magma can burn the entire Sabaody archipelago to ashes.
Sakazuki may not be as strong as Yonko, but he's nonetheless a strong individual. His crazy belief in absolute justice makes his Haki firm and powerful.
Furthermore, he's the owner of the strongest offensive power — Magma fruit.
"Just my Haki is enough to crush you," Blaize exclaimed and took a step forward.
The entirety of his Conqueror's Haki exploded and even manifested into countless dark purple lightning. The sheer might of the Haki turned the sky into a thunderous one.
The grounds began to shake while a strangling shockwave swept across the entire Island.
The countenance of two Cipher Pol agents drastically changed, sensing the vigor of the Haki. They looked at each other, 'This Haki...it's nearly as strong as Whitebeard! We are in trouble!'
They knew Admiral Akainu wouldn't be able to defeat this person with his current strength.
Sakazuki too finally understands what level of threat Blaize possesses and, he alone isn't strong enough to stop.
But, it isn't enough to force someone like him to back down. After all, he's someone who encounters Yonkos frequently. He won't back down to a criminal.
"Entertain me well…" Blaize spoke, "Otherwise, I will beat you to a pulp such that there will be no difference between Magma and blood."
Saying this, Blaize dashed forward and threw a punch by leaping in the air. When Sakazuki tried to counter the attack with his Magma fist and Haki, he was pushed back.
The force behind the punch forced him to glide for a few meters before stopping while his hands trembled from pain and stiffness. 'Such strong Haki!'
This time, Sakazuki took the initiative. 'Dark Hound!' Transforming his hand into magma, he lashed out at Blaize forming a claw-like thrust.
In the series, the blow was powerful enough to melt off part of Whitebeard's head but Blaize didn't find the attack intimidating.
Facing the surging attack that fired at him, Blaize made no attempt to dodge. He took a step forward and met the incoming magma thrust with an outstretched hand.
Channeling the Haki into his hand, he made it erupt outward. Even before the Sakazuki's attack could make contact, it was scattered by the overwhelming Haki outburst.
As Blaize and Sakazuki clashed against one another, the Marines evacuated residents present in the grove area from 1 to 29.
'Boom!' 'Bang!' 'Boom!'
Still, the exchange of blows between the two powerhouses generated sparks of lightning to fly everywhere and powerful shockwaves that shook the entire Sabaody.

Two figures watched the battle from the distance. They are none other than Rayleigh and Shakky.
Smoking a cigarette, Shakky said. "Well...I didn't expect someone to kill to Celestial Dragon, just to face an Admiral. Either he's crazy or someone with ambition.
From the overwhelming Conqueror's haki we sensed earlier, I would say he's ambitious."
"Haha...I felt his vigorous Haki when he exchanged a move before. It was as vast as an ocean." Rayleigh chuckled. "It's worth living to see what kind of future this generation may create!"

"Bang!"
After a few bouts, a strong punch from Blaize connected and hit Sakazuki in his face. The explosive power behind the strike nearly crushed the latter's facial skull and smashed him into the ground.
Sakazuki groaned in pain while coughing a mouthful of blood. "You..."
Blaize didn't give him a chance to rise again. Flashing next to him, he stomped at the chest with his feet that pressed him firmly to the ground.
He didn't just stop with a stomp, his feet exploded with advanced Armament haki that burst out and sought to destroy Akainu's internal organs.
His actions didn't give him the slightest chance for Sakazuki to reform his Magma body efficiently to dodge the haki attack.
Understanding the kind of predicament he's in, Sakazuki used Armament Haki to protect his internal organs. Otherwise, Blaize's attack would have knocked the Admiral unconscious.
Still, the strike of Blaize forced Akainu to the corner and made him powerless as he could do nothing to escape from the other party's hold.
"Ahhh! Bastard, I am going to kill you!" Maddened, Sakazuki's Magu Magu no mi power erupted at full force striving to destroy everything in the vicinity.
But, slight pressure from Blaize's feet and another eruption of his Haki quelled the Sakazuki's Magma power. It was as if the power of Magma didn't affect him in any way.
"Shhhh! You are not a Puppy, Red Dog. You should learn to accept defeat." Blaize remarked and punched him in the face with the power of gravity.
The immense pressure generated from the power of gravity deformed Sakazuki's face to a quirky extent. Blaize didn't stop with a single punch, as a shower of punches fell on Sakazuki.
After twenty or so punches, Blaize stopped sensing Admiral Akainu lost consciousness. As Blaize didn't show any form of mercy, the latter's face was beaten badly with full of blood, beyond recognition.
